Talent Development Manager Jobs in Milpitas, CA (NOW HIRING)

We seek a highly dynamic Talent Development Consultant to join our Employee Experience team, committed to helping our people leaders achieve business impact across the organization!

Talent Development at Adobe is shifting from providing programs to addressing real business challenges through coordinated, data-driven, and scalable development experiences. This role is leading that change.

In the role of program owner, consultant, and facilitator, you will manage the full change lifecycle. This involves understanding business needs, developing and providing solutions, and measuring their outcomes.

This is a valuable chance to build a global leadership development agenda that drives measurable improvements in how leaders think, act, and perform!

• Lead complex, global development initiatives through all phases - diagnosis, design, delivery, and impact measurement
• Manage multiple workstreams, internal partners, and dependencies to deliver high-quality outcomes at scale
• Ensure all development experiences are aligned to business priorities and translate into sustained leadership capability and behaviour change

• Partner with business collaborators to diagnose challenges, identify root causes, and define meaningful interventions
• Apply systems thinking to connect initiatives across Talent Development, Talent Management, and broader people strategies
• Translate business needs into clear development strategies that drive performance and impact

• Build impactful relationships with people leaders, HR Business Partners, and cross-functional teams
• Navigate complexity and ambiguity to drive alignment and momentum across diverse collaborator groups
• Use data, insights, and storytelling to influence decisions and gain agreement

• Develop solutions for growth that extend past learning, centering on behavior change, application, and long-term impact
• Leverage a mix of experiences, tools, and touchpoints to support leaders in real-time
• Ensure solutions are scalable, repeatable, and globally relevant

• Facilitate conversations that challenge thinking, build capability, and drive action
• Build environments that encourage reflection, discussion, and practical application

• Define and implement measurement strategies that go beyond happiness to track behavior change and business impact
• Work alongside data analysis and reporting teams to analyze trends and generate practical insights
• Continuously use data to iterate, improve, and demonstrate value

• Experience managing intricate, worldwide programs from strategy through implementation
• Proven program management abilities, having directed complex, global initiatives from inception to completion, managing multiple contributors, interdependencies, and priorities
• Strong consulting approach, with the ability to diagnose problems and build practical, scalable solutions
• Demonstrated skill in influencing and establishing trust with teams from various departments
• Strong facilitation skills, experienced in guiding meaningful, engaging experiences
• Data driven approach, with experience measuring outcomes and using insights to improve efficiency
• Solid foundation in leadership development, behavioral change, and adult learning

This is not a traditional Talent Development role. You will serve as a program leader, advisor, and catalyst for change, using data and insight to drive decisions and deliver measurable business impact. Your work will directly build how leaders perform and how the business succeeds.

You will join a collaborative, distributed team crafting how leadership development is delivered at scale. This role offers the opportunity to solve complex business challenges and drive measurable change within the organization

• 5 to 8 plus years of background in Consulting, HR, or Change Leadership
• Experience managing complex, global initiatives throughout the entire change process, from assessment through implementation and outcome evaluation
• Experience in consulting, transformation, or client-focused roles is strongly preferred
• Proven capability to persuade senior partners and manage complexity in a global, matrixed setting
• Experience using data and insights to inform strategy and evaluate impact
• Travel may be required up to 10 percent
